Therapies

Traditional Chinese Medicine

Traditional Chinese Medicine is one of the world's oldest medical systems, originally
from China, and still widely practised today.Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
is a holistic medical system which combines the use of acupuncture, Chinese herbs,
nutrition, massage, and movement exercises (known as Tai Chi or Qi Gong) to bring
the body into balance.

Whereas Western medicine looks closely at a symptom and tries to find an underlying
cause, Traditional Chinese Medicine looks at the body as a whole. Each symptom is
looked at in relationship to all other presenting symptoms. The goal of the TCM practitioner
is to assess the entire constitution of the patient - considering both physiological
and psychological aspects.

When a Western doctor sees a distinct disease the Chinese physician sees a ‘pattern
of disharmony’, which is disturbing the patient’s bodily balance. Searching for signs
and symptoms a western doctor might never heed, the TCM practitioner prescribes a
treatment that will

re-harmonise the patient.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is the insertion of hair-fine sterile disposable

stainless steel needles to gently stimulate special areas on

the body known as acupuncture points. In the East, Acupuncture

has been documented as remarkably effective for a range of

conditions and Sue’s clients almost always also notice an

improvement in other health issues during a course of treatment.

Acupuncture is an important part of TCM. Over the past 2,500

years medical scholars in every age have contributed to the

development and refinement of the art of acupuncture in China.

Buqi Chinese Healing

Buqi Healing uses Sue’s strong control over her own energy (qi) and

then she directs this force to heal the patient by correcting the cause

of their ill health. Buqi is an exceptionally beneficial way of treating

without needles and is especially good for children and anyone who

is unsure about needles. Buqi is well suited to people who would not

enjoy the needling aspect of acupuncture but treats all the same

conditions.

Chinese Patent Herbs

Sue offers treatment with Chinese patent herbal medicine, usually prescribed in the
form of pills. Sue uses high quality remedies. These

are used to help to revitalize the body. They support and enhance the effect of acupuncture
on the body, particularly where there is long-term chronic illness.

Herbs are optional and only appropriate for certain conditions. They are particularly
helpful when tonics to revitalise the Qi and blood are required. The accumulative
nature of herbal treatment enables it to optimise the benefits of acupuncture.

Some patent herbs are amazing. For instance the remedy which acts in an anti-depressant
fashion can

take effect within hours, transform symptoms within days and be no longer necessary
after 3-6 weeks.

The light is absorbed by the cells of the skin and blood. It works in several ways
which have been

demonstrated by electron microscopy but mainly by powering up the mitochondria in
cells. The

mitochondria are like the cell’s battery pack. This ensures that each cell can function
more effectively.

It also improves the efficiency of immune system cells such as white blood cells
and mast cells. In this way the immune system can resolve infection and increase
cell repair.

Research on Light Effects

Light delivered by Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) are demonstrating very wide
ranging and

exciting benefits as documented in many medical journals in recent years. Some
examples of

their applications are: Scar tissue -even old scars

Wound healing -speeds healing and reduces
infection

Haematomas -large bruises following accident
or operation

The Qi (Energy)

Qi (pronounced ‘chee’) is unknown in Western medicine, but in simple terms Traditional
Chinese Medicine believes that it is the vital force of the body. It keeps the blood
circulating, warms the body and fights disease. It is Qi that is the essence of living
creatures. Qi flows through certain channels forming a network within the entire
body linking all parts and functions together so they work as one unit. There are
12 main Qi channels, each connected to an internal organ and named after that organ,
and they follow a set pathway in the body.

When a person is healthy the Qi moves smoothly through the channels, but if for some
reason the flow is blocked, too weak or too strong then illness occurs. The aim of
the practitioner is to correct the flow of Qi either by inserting fine needles into
particular points on the channels or by directing the Qi using Buqi to generate Ji
(force) or using Tuina massage. In this way dramatic changes can occur in the mind
or body. Alterations in Qi precede physical change, so Chinese Medicine can act preventatively
by correcting the energy imbalance before a serious illness can occur. If a physical
change has already occurred it can often be reversed by adjusting the Qi.
